Not on your PC. I also get it when clicking on link, but not when going there and following through site. This was same problem when handgun law was under DOS attack, but he just posted all should be fixed now.

ETA: The handgunlaw.us link a couple of posts above is fine. It's the two PDFs of the IL map in the first post that cause the problem. If you go to the handgunlaw site and select the IL site, it loads fine. Can't tell what there is about the post that is different in the URL.

What about South Carolina? Any idea why our permit is not allowed there yet?

I bet the other states are wondering the same about their licenses not being allowed in Illinois.. Any idea why our permit is not allowed there yet?

I know the answer to this one. It's because their carry law, like ours and the majority of other states, do not have recognition written into it, as would be proper per the 14th Amendment. There are many states that have it right, though.

LOL. My response was rhetorical.

I think SC requires the other state to reciprocate in order for SC to recognize their licenses. Illinois doesn't reciprocate with any other state.

Looks like they only recognize states with which they have a formal reciprocity agreement. Illinois has no provision for recognition or agreements spelled out in the law.

There are only a few states remaining as potentials for one-way recognition. VA, MN, TX, and an extremely slim chance at NM. Unless some other state/s change their laws, or Illinois starts recognizing other licenses, that's it.

Illinois' FCCA is a prime example of the maxim that sufficiently advanced incompetence is indistinguishable from malice.

Is getting IL to recognize MN the only way MN will recognize IL? Or is there another avenue?

MN does recognition based on analysis of permit requirements, so one would think they would add Illinois. They don't do agreements or require reciprocity. I've inquired with them as to whether they had yet analyzed IL licenses and not received an answer yet. I wish they did do agreements, if they did, they'd have OH and NM and I'd pick up a non-res from them to cover all the extra states I don't have now.
